There are different standard forms of German, one of them is Austrian Standard German, which differs in some areas of pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary from German German. It is a Standard in its own right and not - as is often assumed (mostly by our German-speaking neighbours) - a regional variety of German (nor a separate language), which means it is codified and is taught in educational institutions in Austria. As the largest part of Austria belongs to the Bavarian dialect area (Bavarian is a technical and abstract term here and should not be confused with what we commonly understand by a Bavarian dialect), the Austrian Standard would show more features of this.

In addition to the Austrian Standard, there are - as everywhere - further regional and social varieties of Austrian German, e.g. Viennese German (supposedly the variety used in the film), Tyrolean German, etc., partly differing quite significantly from the Standard and from each other.
